Creamy Zucchini Noodles

(3 Minute Recipe)

Ingredients
1 large zucchini
2 tablespoons chicken broth
or water
2 tablespoons cream cheese
 (I use light).. plain or herb & garlic flavor
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1 tablespoon of fresh grated parmesan cheese
salt & pepper to taste
Possible Add Ins
fresh herbs
left over chicken
mushrooms
shrimp
chili flakes


Instructions
Run a veggie peeler down the length of the zucchini creating thin strips of zucchini. Continue until you reach the core where the seeds are. Discard the core or save it for another use (I toss mine in soup).

Turn the stove onto medium high and place the zucchini strips in a non-stick pan with the chicken broth or water. Cook for about 3 minutes or just until heated through.

Move the zucchini strips over to one side of the pan and add the cream cheese & garlic powder to the empty side. Turn the heat down to low and stir the cream cheese just till melted.
Toss the cream cheese, parmesan cheese & zucchini until well mixed and heated through. Serve immediately.
